All organisms are linked to their surroundings. The survival of an organism thus depends upon its surroundings. These surroundings of an organism constitute its (are called as - delete) environment. Any change in the surroundings/environment affects the growth and survival of living organisms to a significant extent. Nutrients and energy get distributed among various living components present in a particular environment. Ecology is the study of the relationship of organisms i.e. plants, animals, microorganisms with their surroundings (environment). Ecological studies deal with the relationships of organisms with their environment. The present unit provides information about basic concepts in ecology. Expected Learning Outcomes After the study of this Unit, you should be able to define various terms used in ecology (environment, population, community, ecosystem and ecosphere), 7 Block 1 Ecology and Ecological Factors describe subdivisions of ecology, outline differences between natural and man-made environment, describe components of the ecosystem, enlist characteristics of the community, enumerate knowledge about recent developments in the field of ecology, and discuss the interrelationships between ecology and other disciplines of biology. 1.2 WHAT IS ECOLOGY?

Chapter 2 Paleontology and Ecology: Their Common Origins and Later Split David M. Wilkinson ‘Why run the Earth and life sciences together? I would ask, why have they been torn apart by the ruthless dissection of science into separate and blinkered disciplines.’ James Lovelock (1995) Abstract Today paleontology and ecology exist as separate disciplines, however for much of the history of research on these topics that was not the case. The splitting of ‘science’ into multiple discrete disciplines is mainly a product of the nineteenth century – when both paleontology and ecology acquired their names. To provide a historical background to the interrelationship between these two areas I consider four illustrative figures from the sixteenth century to the early twentieth century and discuss the extent to which these two areas of science interacted in their attempts to understand the world. I suggest that the rise of Earth Systems Science in the final few decades of the twentieth century shows one way of returning to a less compartmentalized approach to studying the Earth and illustrates the advantages to be gained from breaking down the boundaries between traditional late nineteenth and twentieth century scientific disciplines.

  • The "Cycle of Life" in Ecology
    The “Cycle of Life” in Ecology: Sergei Vinogradskii’s Soil Microbiology, 1885-1940 by Lloyd T. Ackert Jr., Ph.D. Whitney Humanities Center Yale University 53 Wall Street P.O. Box 208298 New Haven, CT 06520-8298 Office (203)-432-3112 [email protected] Abstract Historians of science have attributed the emergence of ecology as a discipline in the late nineteenth century to the synthesis of Humboldtian botanical geography and Darwinian evolution. In this essay, I begin to explore another, largely-neglected but very important dimension of this history. Using Sergei Vinogradskii’s career and scientific research trajectory as a point of entry, I illustrate the manner in which microbiologists, chemists, botanists, and plant physiologists inscribed the concept of a “cycle of life” into their investigations. Their research transformed a longstanding notion into the fundamental approaches and concepts that underlay the new ecological disciplines that emerged in the 1920s. Pasteur thus joins Humboldt as a foundational figure in ecological thinking, and the broader picture that emerges of the history of ecology explains some otherwise puzzling features of that discipline—such as its fusion of experimental and natural historical methodologies. Vinogradskii’s personal “cycle of life” is also interesting as an example of the interplay between Russian and Western European scientific networks and intellectual traditions. Trained in Russia to investigate nature as a super-organism comprised of circulating energy, matter, and life; over the course of five decades—in contact with scientists and scientific discourses in France, Germany, and Switzerland—he developed a series of research methods that translated the concept of a “cycle of life” into an ecologically- conceived soil science and microbiology in the 1920s and 1930s.

  • On the Evolution of Ecosystem Patterns Margalef
    Evolution at the Ecosystem Level: On the Evolution of Ecosystem Patterns Margalef Prize Lecture 2010 Simon Levin, Princeton University Introduction: The history of ecology is firmly grounded in natural history. Darwin’s voyage on the Beagle transformed our view of Nature, and set the stage for the emergence of the new discipline. Natural history was the cradle of ecology, and remains its foundation. But understanding ecological patterns, and being able to manage precious resources, required understanding dynamics. So ecology embraced mathematical formalisms, in a partnership that facilitated general theory. The theoretical constructs developed nearly a century ago by pioneers like Alfred Lotka and Vito Volterra remain at the core of research in ecology today, and are must-learning for all young ecologists, no matter how mathematical they are. Indeed, in turning to mathematical approaches, ecology was rediscovering and extending insights from demographic investigations from the 17th Century and later Malthus and Verhulst, with roots reaching back even to Fibonacci five centuries before. Meanwhile, evolutionary biology, the essential legacy of Darwin’s writings, developed its own mathematical foundations. Ronald Fisher, Sewall Wright and J.B.S. Haldane pioneered the development of a synthetic mathematical theory that deepened our understanding of evolution, and provided a framework for the modern synthesis of genetics and evolution that is at the center of all biological understanding. Theodosius Dobzhansky crystallized this view in his famous essay titled “Nothing in Biology Makes Sense Except in the Light of Evolution” (Dobzhansky 1973). Thus, the parallel developments in the two fields of ecology and evolutionary biology suggested natural synergies between them, but those synergies have been only partially realized.
